Category posts: Soup

It’s dry season here in Trinidad and the air is a real mess. With the Sahara dust and the dust from the dried grass and shrubs my allergies are taking a real beating. And when I’m feeling under the weather, there’s nothing that works better to easy my symptoms and give me a boost that a bowl of soup.

Our of all the beans and peas lentils is definitely my favorite hands down. Growing up, my mum used to cook this for us at least once a week. Made with a combo of vegetables, and cooked down until nice and thick. I always stole a bowl before anyone else got to it. And once there was leftovers I always added some water and made soup.
